参与科研对理工科大学生创新素质影响的实证研究

An Empirical Study on the Impact of Scientific Research Participation on the Innovative Quality of College Students of Science and Engineering

本科生参与科学研究是我国研究型大学培养拔尖创新人才的重要举措。对华中科技大学900名理工科大学生实施了参与科研情况和创新素质的问卷调查后发现:参与科研与未参与科研的大学生在专业知识的深广、分析解决问题能力,以及思维的深刻、敏捷和独创三个创新素质因子上存在显著差异;科研参与频次和科研参与强度是大学生创新素质的重要影响因素;持续参与科研活动有助于提升大学生的创新素质,尤其是创造性人格的发展。据此,构建一个覆盖全体学生、学生持续参与的本科生科研体系是创新人才培养改革的可为之举。

Leading Undergraduates to participate in scientific research is a pivotal measure to cultivate inno- vative talents in research universities all around the country, in this study, 900 undergraduates of sci- ence and engineering in Huazhong University of Science and Technology were surveyed by a question- naire including the level of participating in scientific research and their innovative quality scale. The results suggest that there are some significant differences among the students who take part in the re- search and those who do dot. Mainly, the three innovative quality factors vary in the breadth and depth of expertise, the ability to analyze and solve problems, and the depth, agility, creativity of thinking involving in research or not. The frequency and intensity of participating in research impact the undergraduates＇ innovative quality greatly. Continuous participation in scientific research can con- tribute to the innovative quality of undergraduates, and especially help them to build a creative per- sonality. Accordingly, Building an undergraduate research system allowing all undergraduates to con- tinuously participate in scientific research is a feasible measure for the reform of the innovative talents cultivation.
